Full windows 3.11 instalation, complete with tcp/ip stack and internet explorer 5.

This isn't the 'for Workgroups' version, and the startup screen still mentions 3.1, but you can see in the video that it's actually 3.11. Apparently it's jus. Mar 09, 2001 Install Windows 3.11 before installing the Network Interface Card (NIC). Power off your computer; install the NIC and connect it to the network cable. (Check your manuals for installation of adapter cards.) Restart your computer. After Windows restarted, insert the first diskette that contains 3c509b 3Com NIC Driver in your floppy drive. Jun 04, 2016 Fortunately, WfW 3.11 already supported CD drives, so you can directly install the drivers during Windows Setup: Windows Setup will automatically install two protocols: IPX/SPX Compatible Transport with NetBIOS and Microsoft NetBEUI, with the latter being the default protocol. We’ll change this later. Full windows 3.11 instalation, complete with tcp/ip stack and internet explorer 5.
